Journal of Museum & Culture

We would like to introduce the internet site of the Journal of Museum & Culture, published by the Chinese Association of Museum, Taiwan (R.O.C.) as the following:

http://www.cam.org.tw/big5/activity/cam-web/Eeglish.htm

The Journal was launched in June 2011 as an independent peer reviewed journal which brings together original academic papers by scholars and museum professionals on the subject of museology in modern culture development.

The 4th issue of our journal will focus on“Museums, Communities and Knowledge”to discuss how museum reflect, practice and create knowledge and establish sharing forum in contemporary globalized environment.

It would be our great delight that you could help us to send the information to other friends or send us your academic papers. I believe that the journal would be very promising and fruitful under your support.
